This archive has 4 files: RExecute.README This file RExecute.intro Description of this program RExecute-startup Sample Startup Script (see below) RExecute.rexx ARexx Program INSTALLATION: The only file you MUST have is the .rexx program in your REXX: directory. If you want to use this program the way described below (as I do), copy the RExecute.Startup file to your S: directory, and insert the line as indicated in your Startup-Sequence. To use this startup file, you must create a new subdirectory in S: called "Common_Apps" and move your more common scripts there. (This pretty much presumes you'll execute this scripts ONLY from RExecute, and leave your old CLI-typing behind.) USAGE: To execute, just type "run rx RExecute". My use of this program is a little more sophisticated. I have all the common scripts copied to RAM (as scripts, they don't take a lot of memory) so I don't have to switch disks as often (Hard Drive donations appreciated! :-) At completion of the copy to RAM, the .rexx program is executed and brings up a window for selection of a script. Selection of a script will EXECUTE that script and return the window right away. You can continue selecting, leaving the window up during your entire session if you choose. If you need the memory or just want to get rid of RExecute, just click on the 'CANCEL' button. My startup-sequence has the following line in it: ashell "CON:200/100/430/100/RExecute Window" from S:RExecute-Startup This creates a separate window for the script output, and the startup script for the window will copy all your most common scripts into RAM or RAD, depending on what you have available. (Users who prefer an interlaced WB screen can change the second number from 100 to 300 to have this new window at the very bottom of the screen). DISCLAIMER Upgrades? I doubt it. This does everything I need it to and haven't changed it in a LONG time. This is freeware, but please keep all files together if you copy this anywhere. *** John PLink: J DUBLER CI$: 73220,2567 Saved: 11/25/89
